Chapter ne I PURR XI' '1'Hli l AC1Ul.'l'X By St Rents. AS 'torn 'to Gtiosr XVRITER GAL:-I .Xmuoxs l-out years ago. a friendless waif. l blinked my eyes in IYakeHeld High School 'I he faculty took me under its wing and named me Stuplm. ,Ns a freshman I amused myself by romping with the janitor's mop and scooting. nimbly behind my faithful guardian. Mrs. Allen, our matron. XX'hen I became a sophomore. I courageously plunkecl into the office of Submaste! Ifulton. who supposedly is not zt cat lover: howeyer. he enjoyed my company and let me dole in his basket of letters! ln my 'unior vc-ar I moyecl farther up the runf- of royalty. I xersuaded Head- . .I , l 5 , . master liinder to set a date for the -lunior l'rom and. of course, had to use shrewci c:.t-tactics. IW- finally agrcfecl on November IS for the gala event. lic-ing a SPIIJAIH' l have now reached the highest bracket. Occasionally I sleep on at lc'athc'r footstool in Superintendent Hc-nclershot's office. where I find complete content mc-nt. l rarely have to more from the spot because Miss Caswell brings me catnip. and Mrs. C.onlc-y clc-livers any messages. Most teachers clon't mind my taking catnaps in class. Once Mr. Barry tapped mc on thc- head with his little red ruler. and I sprang lu attenticm. It seems that I was snoring and disturbing the history class. ln mathematics. Miss Height had clilhculty teaching me the squares ol one-digit numbers: still. l coulcl always remember that 3: equals nine! l often attc-nclc-cl the movies in 302. Miss flowing is an outstanding producer. clirece tor. and proic-ction manager of French and Spanish films. Our kindly guiclance director. Mr. Heavens. set me on the right path whenever I was lost. ln my allotted space l can mention only a few of the faculty: however I thank c-xc-ry one of them for the splendid help and pleasure given me during my high-school career.
